Personal Statement

Personal Statement:

I want to help you create greater satisfaction in your life based on your own values, beliefs, strengths and preferences. Your life experience matters and I can help you develop new ideas and skills or I can help you reconnect with valuable old or forgotten ones. I will listen with interest and empathy to your stories of tragedy, trouble and triumph. Together, we can grieve the tragedies, overcome the troubles, celebrate the triumphs and make real changes in your life.
I am Lead Gender Therapist at Kaiser Permanente Sherman Terrace, Reseda, CA. I lead their Mindfulness Program and am co-founder/co-owner of NOW House Mindful Awareness Center.
I am former Team Leader for the Adolescent Treatment & Couples Treament Teams at Kaiser, Reseda. I previously provided Clinical Supervision to therapists in training at Phillips Graduate Institute (PGI) and Valley Trauma Center. I was adjunct faculty at PGI and taught their one year PostModern Therapies specialty course.
